Sharon Jones and the Dap-Kings - It's a Holiday Soul Party One of my favourite Xmas albums, as we're putting up the Christmas tree...

Now That's What I Call Christmas Didn't see this thread until now. I've been playing a lot of hipper choices until now but this is my sop to my kids so that we get Mariah Carey, Wham and Ed Sheeran to keep them happy. Some pretty decent tunes on there too. (Also first sighting here of my new...

She did Tracks of My Years on Radio 2 a couple of weeks ago https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m002539d

I wasn't really expecting this - esp as I use Spotify for music discovery mostly. My mins are way down this year as I've been listening to so many audiobooks

I've just bought a A25 on offer. Have to drive down to Sweden before Xmas to pick it up. Excited to try it out...

Her own website suggests another three (!) could be on their way soon as well...

I really enjoyed The Cure too, but Spotify glitched on me while I was on the metro and suddenly it played this jazzy intro, and I was like "this is an interesting change in pace" only to check and see it was a Miles Davis live song from 1964!

Got to hang out a little bit with James Brandon Lewis last couple of days and aside from him and the Messthetics being lovely people he said he's got a new trio record coming out in February and a new quartet album in May. Don't know how he releases so much great stuff so often...

James Brandon Lewis & The Messthetics My AOTY and now gig of the year. Superb blend of jazz and rock, and even better live than on record. They played a few tasty new songs as well. I got to hang with them last night, fun group...

Cheers @Hemotep for a fantastic guess thread, and great album. It just felt a bit weird spending quite a bit more on the postage than on the record so helping out some hard-hit folk seemed a decent idea. Thanks again @Hemotep for making such a kind donation. Love this place...

Crippling Alcoholism - With Love From A Padded Room Song titles include Mob Dad, Liquid Jesus, Evil Has A Babyface, Templeton....

I went into my local today and bought three black vinyl / standard editions records (Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan, The Smile, Ezra Collective - all fantastic). I just checked on Discogs and in all cases fewer people have the black vinyl copy than the "limited edition" alternative, often by a factor of...

I'm trying this - I reckon my Sleeps With Angels vinyl could fund the entire boxset if I'm lucky...

Something of a flex Fresh Grab. On the way to my mate's spectacular place on the Costa Brava, we stopped off in Barcelona and I went to the amazing Barcelona City Records. One of the best Latin sections I've seen. I did a deal selling four records, and getting these six (one a triple) all from...

I remember seeing them in London about the time this album came out. They were great, just like on record. But when they got to the encore, they had no songs left, so just played a couple of the same ones again! Never seen that before or since...

Ezra Collective's session on 6 Music yesterday was excellent Mary Anne Hobbs - Ezra Collective live session - BBC Sounds It starts at about 1hr27mins

Oooh, second great Quintet. Would personally have preferred anything later from them, and/or some stuff from 1974/75 beforehand. Will probably need this to go lower in price, but it will be a must get for me.
